A verification / gate-running subagent you dispatched into YOUR OWN worktree silently measures the branch PLUS your uncommitted edits, and reports the mixture as the branch's result. Nothing is clobbered and nothing errors — the suite really ran, the counts are real, they are just counts of a tree nobody will ever merge. Use when: (1) you dispatched an agent to "run the gates" / "verify main" / "check the suites" and pointed it at the directory you are still editing or committing in; (2) an…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# A verifying agent in your live worktree measures your uncommitted work ## Problem You dispatch a subagent to verify a merge: *"run the four suites and the validator against `main`, report the numbers."* You point it at the worktree you are working in, because that is where the venv is symlinked and the tooling is set up. Then you keep working — editing, staging, committing, merging PRs. **The agent's gate run measures the branch plus whatever is in your working tree at that instant.** There is no clobber, no error, and nothing looks wrong: the suites really execute, the numbers it reports are real numbers, and it prints them with a commit SHA next to them. They are simply counts of a tree that exists only on your disk and will never be merged. The report then becomes the session's evidence — pasted into a PR body, a handoff, a tracker card — as "verified green at `<sha>`". ## Why this is worse than the clobber cases The sibling failures in this collection are loud once you look: - `dispatched-bash-agent-git-checkout-clobbers-uncommitted-edit` — your edit vanishes. - `concurrent-session-checkout-clobbers-shared-worktree` — the branch changes under you. …

How to install
mdr add wan-huiyan/agent-traffic-control/isolate-subagent-verification-from-live-worktree@sha256:4a2a7772b9e18ecfThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
